    It was messed up. Didn't drop him off where he was picked up(Where his car was) but had him like 25 miles from the house with no way to cover the ground. I always ask where my students want out and that is where I put them. That guys trainer should have been shot.

    I'm tellin' ya. You won't find a better training outfit than Roehl, even with the occasional foul up. Of course, that is a qualified statement. What do you have to pick from? See what I mean. Also, some trainers are better than others, but to be fair, some students are better than others. I heard a student once while I was in Gary jump up and down because he was "made" to drive on a road other than the interstate and that he had to drive AT NIGHT. Come on. Some complaints about the training don't hold much water. And there are many who have made a good living at Roehl and stayed. It wasn't busy enough for me. I HATE to wait for work while I am at someone's disposal.
    That said, I got my 14 months at Roehl and got a good job. I feel that working for Roehl and going through their program helped me get my current job and for that I am grateful.
    Now, I will go and cry, as I appear to be in touch with my "softer" side.

    Thanks for the hank. Now, I have to go and get my color design and theme for the cab approved by safety. I'm thinking of perhaps something in chartreuse.
